Next date: Saturday, 06 June 2026 | 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Books & Brunch with U.S. Marine & author Edward H. Carpenter

Join us for a fascinating author talk with Edward H Carpenter, on life as a U.S. Marine turned U.N. peacekeeper, and why Edward now calls regional Australia 'home'.

Edward is an American-turned-Aussie, and the author of the bestselling memoir Blue Helmet. Drawing on his experience as a warfighter turned peacekeeper, Edward shares fascinating stories from war zones around the world - the people he met, what holds communities together when things fall apart, and why he now calls Australia 'home'.

Enjoy a delicious home-baked morning tea, lovingly prepared by our wonderful library ladies, and a memorable conversation with Edward about what we can learn from difficult places about life back home.
